I have continued to engage with China on a range of human rights issues, including the serious concerns my Office identified in the Xinjiang region.
My Office recently visited Beijing to discuss, among other things, problematic provisions in China’s counterterrorism and criminal laws, as well as the application of national security laws in Hong Kong SAR.
My Office continues to raise individual cases of concern, and I deplore the heavy sentences given last week to a women’s rights activist and to a labour rights activist for exercising their fundamental human rights.
I urge the authorities to release all those arbitrarily detained, ensure access to information by family members and embark on legal reform.
I acknowledge the dialogue of the authorities with my Office and hope this will contribute to concrete improvements in all human rights.
